November Zoo

The kids had an extra early day at school a few weeks ago, so we went to the zoo. I love going to the zoo in the fall because it is nice and cool, and there's hardly anyone else there.

We Finally got to see the baby elephant!

Anna and Matt were the only kids on the carosel.

We had such a fun time, and it was such a beautiful day!

Friday Field Trip

I got to go with Matt's kidergarten class to cornbelly's on an "educational" field trip. It was my job to make sure these four boys didn't get lost.

Or put in the stocks. Oops.

I think they all had fun and no one was lost/hurt/eaten by a snake-phew!

Halloween Stuff

Sorry so late on these. I have had a couple of projects for church that have been occupying my time, and blogger has been not so nice to me lately. So this first set is from Anna's 2nd grade program. It was held a few days before Halloween. Anna wanted to be a tiger for Halloween and this is what I came up with, and she loved it! (phew).

Matt saw this penguin costume in the hand-me-down box and he was set.

I love this picture taken right before the program started. Anna is looking cute, but check out the other  kids-ha!

Grandpa and Grandma Mclean happened to be here that night, so they got to come to the program too!

We  had second row seats, but I pretty much couldn't see any thing because of this guy and his need to record THE WHOLE program. Seriously? Who watches those videos?

Super Anniversary Fun Times

Today is Kent any my 9th wedding anniversary! I asked him this morning if he really remembers much about the actual wedding day, and he said "yeah, some". Very cryptic. One thing that stands out in my own memory is being very relived that he showed up. Ha ha! I mean, why would I worry about that? Look how cute I am! Plus I know about Baz Lurhmann.

Since the big anniversary is on a Tuesday, we went out last week to celebrate. We went to this new museum called the "Leonardo". They have all kinds of cool art, and  science-y stuff.

This is Kent trying out a prosthetic hand that worked by sensing muscle movements in your arm. Either that, or he's practicing his Dr. Frankenstein. "It's Alive!!".

Hey! I was there!

The Leonardo is right next to the Salt Lake Library, and you can walk up this stair case to the roof of the building.

Of course we had to finish up the date by eating much meat at Tucanos. Yum!

Conference Weekend in Eden

 The McLean's had a condo in beautiful Eden for the week and we spent the weekend up there watching conference, and enjoying the beautiful scenery-and some giant carrots.

R.S. General Meeting

My Mom, Sister, Sister in Law and I went to the R.S broadcast on Saturday. I loved having so much company for such a wonderful meeting!
